    May Competition: Childhood Memories – share your story and you could win $100!

    I remember my mother washing and drying me in our (possibly asbestos ridden) bathroom. (It had Fibro panelling all through the bathroom 🤔) I particularly remember how much time she spent vigorously drying between my toes. After she'd finished, they my toes felt double jointed. 🤣

    Who remembers Dave Allen?

    Love Dave Allen and his irreverent take on Religion, especially the Reverand Ian Paisley. When he walked out onto the Sydney Opera House stage pointing to his white/grey hair, the first words out of his mouth were, " You weren’t expecting this, were you?" At intermission, he said that we were...

    ‘Corrupt, incompetent and treasonous’: Bruce Springsteen’s fierce warning on stage

    Well said. Trump swore to defend the Constitution, but instead he's shreading it. He's ignoring the laws, the judiciary and other leaders and voices internally and externally. He's becoming one of the dictators whom he so admires and befriends, to the detriment of supposedly democratic America...

    Aussie council rules threaten hefty fines, new confiscation rules

    Multi-millionaire, property developer, investor Mayor Tom Tate has no idea what ordinary people are going through. No idea. Move them on or fine them and/or confiscate their meager possessions. To what end? To leave them worse off them they already are? Good one! How about providing low cost...

    Very sad. Great actor. So many are dying now. There go your childhood and adulthood heroes and favourites. So many going as we age.

    'It's just a shame': Massive 'un-Australian' charge turns Aussie tradition into luxury

    I watch my beloved Wests Tigers (NRL) at the pub when it's not on free to air TV. Hopefully that won't change. The pubs do very well from drink and food sales, not to mention pokies

    Secret speed camera feature catches drivers faces $1800 fine

    They need more speed cameras in road work areas. I'm sick and tired of others speeding past me when I slow down to meet the indicated speed limit. More red light and speed cameras at intersections wouldn't hurt either

    I receive similar, multiple scam emails daily. I'd love to send them a computer virus in return

    Labor has promised to tackle homelessness. Here’s what homeless people say they need

    As I and others have always said, you can never know what it's like until you're there yourself. That goes for anything. Ask the experts. Those who live it every day. Long term housing plans are all well and good, but where will they sleep this month, this week, tonight? Permanent interim...

    ‘It’s already here’: Expert’s warning as Australia edges closer to a cashless future

    So much for the "cash economy" illegal transactions. That's a good thing. But how will older people cope? How will you play a poker machine, for example, without cash? Use your debit or credit card? Dangerous! Total reliance on online banking and electronic systems is not a good thing. No...

    Are these boots considered 'bogan' or chic? Fashion fans say their piece!

    I saw a girl wearing Ugg boots in Kmart. They didn't really suit her outfit, a tad bogany, but she was comfortable, so, who cares? 😅
